wtf is this
watch Phantom of The Paradise if you want real kino
>>215299183trannyslop
>>215299183An entertaining film. It's absurd and irreverent, but very enjoyable. It's amazing it even got made at the time.
/tv/ used to like it before the /pol/niggers decided it's problematic
>>215299183Camp, you either get it, or you don't. Don't be a non-binary faggot about it.

>when the supposed autuers of /tv/ actually only watch capeslop and stream slop
>>215299183It's absurd faggot kino >>215299233/pol/ has been in /tv/ since the beginning, not your hugbox
>>215299377hnnng checkedit was the main reason i paid attention to the movie honestlythe rest was too gay, even for my young self
Tranny movie, 2025: :<Tranny movie, 1975: :O
>>215299183One of the coolest musicals ever. I don't care if it's gay. Go look for the recording of the actual show, it's better than the movie.
>>215299601>It's absurd faggot kinoThe guy in the wheelchair would agree.
>>215299183>>215299688transgenderism was seen as horrifying back then
I haven't seen the film, but it seems interesting and avant-garde for its time. Can anyone give me an objective review of the film?
>>215299183proof that tim curry can do anything and still be entertaining
>>215299183The sequel is better
>>215299183Is this a man or woman??
>>215299183I still don't get what it has to do with Rocky. Stallone isn't even in it.
>>215300110Imagine if James Rolfe wrote a musical and adapted it into a movie.
eddie is the best song
>>215300533Kino
>>215299183Trannies were so cool in the 70s. What the hell happened?
>>215300618it used to be fringe and weird, then it got popular for oppression points and become oversaturated with manipulative psychos
>>215300598I swear almost every song from this is an earworm. Whatever happened to Saturday nights?>>215300612That's literally it. A musical with references to shitty black and white horror movies everyone pretends to have watched.>>215300618Frank is a sweet transvestite, not a tranny. He isn't even gay, jus bisexual.
>>215299183highly overrated is what it iswhy people love it is beyond me
>>215299688unironically yes. I love the movie The Birdcage despite generally hating gay people
>>215300646also the idea of “CALL ME A WOMAN OR ILL GET YOU FIRED AND RUIN YOUR LIFE” wasn’t a thing back then
>grew up in evangelical household >thought Rocky Horror was supposed to be some kind of satanic degeneracy >watch it as an adult through my wife >it’s fun
>>215300598>what a guy >makes you cry >UND I DID
>>215300680It has good songs and the female cast is sexy af. If you're gay, the male cast is even better.
>>215300598>>215300762>from the day she was gone>all he wanted>was rock'n'roll porn>UND A MOTORBIKE
>>215299688transsexuals knew they were weird and that was part of the identity until like, after occupy wall street
>>215299215He was just crossdressing
>>215299688There's a difference between cross dressing and mentally ill trannys.
>>215300110What if Michael Jackson's Thriller short movie were a feature film with rockabilly soundtrack?
>>215299183Loses its steam a bit after Sweet Transvesiste, no matter how good Hot Patootie is. Still, well worth a watch
>>215300875i thought the guy was a transvestite or crossdresser, not a tranny
>>215300110It's the opposite of avant-garde. It's intentionally trashy pastiche of music and horror films of the 50s and 60s wrapped in a layer of Richard O'Brien's gender dysphoria
>>215300598Worst song, and the guy they got to do Dr Scott couldn't sing let alone in a bad German accent. Super Heroes is the best song followed by Dammit Janet
>>215300110The music is great and I really don't like too many musicals
>>215299183Watch the sequel Shock Treatment along with De Palma's Phantom of the Paradise. They're both pure, unadulterated kino starring our beloved queen.
>>215299377This taken from the new 4k?
>>215300110Susan Sarandon full frontal nude.(as a statue but it's so realistic I'm certain it's a genuine body cast)
>>215299183The first half is great but the movie is very front loaded. The second half doesn't have any good musical numbers and it drags on.
>>215299183I need to watch this just for frame of reference, I guess it still gets shown regularly, which is kinda unique, and the fan interaction with it in the theater is something that’s unheard of. I think you should watch it op and report back in with your honest opinion. It would be nice to have a thread that wasn’t 95% cringe lords trying to be funny.
Tim Curry has an autobiography coming up.>in his memoir, Curry takes readers behind-the-scenes of his rise to fame from his early beginnings as a military brat to his formative years in boarding school and university, to the moment when he hit the stage for the first time. He goes in-depth about what it was like to work on some of the most emblematic works of the 20th century, constantly switching between a camera and a live audience. He also explores the voicework that defined his later career and provided him with a chance to pivot after surviving a catastrophic stroke in 2012 that nearly took his life. RHPS and on stage will be a big part of that.
>>215299183A really shit musical.I genuinely like musicals, but this one sucks balls.
>>215300110A lot of films that were avant-garde for 1975 are still avant-garde today. Rocky Horror is not that or all that interesting either, except as a cultural artifact. I have a fondness for the film because I was a theater kid back in the day. If you're an adult watching the film for the first time, you might end up washing your eyes out with bleach.
>>215299183Mods are out of control I spend more time banned than posting. If anon is still around I was wrong it was two different actresses but all white people look the same. Left is Audrey right was Sandy. Both 18+ so don’t shit your panties.
>>215299203i like that one better as a movie but the music in rocky horror bangs more to be honestalso >>215299377
>>215301384All movies are front loaded: Streets of Fire, Taxi Driver, the Godfather, Blade Runner, Dune, Reservoir Dogs...
>>215302000There are more than 6 movies.
>>215300110It’s a fun campy homage to schlocky 50s horror and science fiction movies turned into a rock musical.
>>215302152Anon asked for an objective review. Fun is very subjective here (it isn't).
>>215300110How can a review be objective? The whole point is that you're giving your opinion based upon your sensibilities.
>>215302309Nah, you can review a film without that shit.
>you now remember that time in hs you tried to talk the theater troupe into performing this>and you wanted to play Frank N Further
>studio didn't want to have Frank-N-Furter played by a guy who'd never been in a film before>Richard O'Brien accepted a much smaller budget just to keep himAbsolute kino, would never be the same film with someone else
>>215302000The best part of Blade Runner is the ending.
>>215299183faggot shit
>>215302152>homage to schlocky 50s horrorPeople who say this have literally never watched a 50s horror movie before.
>>215302435No, then you're just summarizing the film like a wiki. I think more likely whoever made that post doesn't understand what "objective" means, and misused it the same way people do when they misuse "literally".
Go woke, go broke
>>215299203Based. Curryfags BTFO
>>215302761Yeah, it's more of an old, dark house movie from what I recall. Haven't seen it since high school.
>>215302822Literally isn't often misused. It's just overused, and annoying when it's emphatic. And no, you can review a film's qualities without subjective opinions, and beyond just simply summarizing the film's plot.
>>215299183watch it and make your own mind up (it's shit btw)
>>215299183Science fiction, double feature.
>>215299183Don't dream it, be it
Touch me, I want ro be DIRTY!
>>215299183It's a retarded tranny-fest full of faggoty fuckery. The only thing that saves it from being dumpster-trash is Tim Curry.
>>215300157trvke
>>215299203FPBP.
>>215301255I watched both Phantom and Shock Treatment recently for the first time. Phantom I adored and have rewatched it a few times + had the soundtrack stuck in my head for weeks. Shock Treatment I really, really tried to like but thought it was boring & uninspired, a big disappointment.
